Our Medicine Maxfax Entry Programme MBBS is a four-year medical degree designed specifically for qualified dentists who are registered with the UK General Dental Council and who wish to pursue a career in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
Our MBBS degree aims to train students to become:
• critical scientific thinkers
• collaborative leaders and innovators
• outstanding patient-centred clinicians
• excellent team-players
• educators and life-long learners
• resilient and adaptable professionals.
If considering applying to study medicine, we advise you check details in this website - GMC Outcomes for Graduates – that sets out the skills, procedures and levels of competence newly qualified doctors must have, so they can practise safely when they start work.
The MBBS curriculum is divided into three ‘Stages’. Although we offer multiple entry routes into Medicine, all our students follow the same fundamental MBBS curriculum.
As a student on the Maxfax Entry Programme you will not take Stage 1, and you will join the other medical students at Stage 2.
GEM Years 1 and 2 brings together science and clinical practice in blocks organised around the human life-cycle and common pathological processes. It focuses on the care of patients with common conditions in a range of clinical settings. You will also follow patients for prolonged periods of time to learn how to deliver whole-person care. This stage is underpinned by study in biomedical and population sciences.
GEM Years 3 and 4 are oriented towards future practice and includes the opportunity to undertake elective study abroad. You will also conduct quality improvement projects and develop skills to transform patient and population health at home and abroad. Inter-professional training and increasingly realistic simulation are important parts of the curriculum.
Through the programme there are a series of project modules, which offer a range of different learning, some of which can be adapted for student choice. We are looking to grow the range of Projects (and choice) we offer and this may result in changes to the Project modules in your programme.
